Anyone know who the closest Dodge Dealer to me is in North/Central Florida that has Viper Techs.? I live in Palm Coast (beachside), which is between Jacksonville and Daytona Beach. I am not getting the car until Friday but want the information for future reference (warranty, etc.).

Thanks in advance...Bob Z. (Viperbob)

Bob,

I also responded in the GTS forum, but forgot the phone number: 352.372.4343 The service manager is Len Thomas. I highly recommend that you do not speak with anyone but Len. I believe the Viper Tech is Mark Wilson. I only spoke with him once, and believe I am recalling his name correctly. I have 5 Dodges and spend a lot of time at Gainesville Dodge. Let me know if I can be of further assistance.

Thanks; however, Gainesville Dodge is quite a distance from me - anybody else? Worst case is I will have to use them but I am thinking there must be a dealer closer...quite a few snakes here in the Sunshine State!

There is a big dealership located in Daytona and they always have a Viper out front. Not sure if they are any good but have stopped in to browse a few times.

Are you talking about the Dodge dealer at the AutoMall, off LPGA Blvd.?

Surely members of the VCA Central/Northern Region take their Vipers to a Dodge dealer occasionally...where?

I bought my 06 Viper from Daytona Dodge in May. I had to bring my Viper in three times to get my clutch fixed correctly.

If you have any non-warranty work that needs to be done, bring your Viper to Macedo Motorsports in Orlando. Larry Macedo specializes in Viper's and does top quality work.

The North/Central FL chapter is renting the dragstrip at Gainesville Raceway this Saturday. I believe the time is 8 to 4pm. If you can attend, you can likely learn from attendees who the reputable Viper Techs are throughout the region.

Larry installed a Corsa exhaust on my car last month and did a great job. He made sure that he welded the pipes on and gave them enough room to expand without hitting the edges of the trim.

Will do, I will get in touch with Larry - does he have email?

I assume he can change the oil and I am thinking about having the cats cut out but retain the stock mufflers. I had a '94 without cats albeit it had Borlas.
